23rd October 2014By dcnadmin

Here is a quick review and comparison for the new Canon SX60 HS vs Panasonic FZ70 digital compact system cameras. Canon has announced the 65x superzoom PowerShot SX60 HS just before the Photokina 2014 event.

To see the difference between Canon SX60 HS vs Panasonic FZ70 digital cameras, we take a look at the specifications comparison of both cameras.

The Lumix DMC-FZ70 is a 16.1MP compact system superzoom camera with a 60x optical zoom. The camera offers a focal length of 20-1200mm, the 60x optical zoom of the FZ70 can be increased to an incredible 102x optical zoom using the 1.7x Tele Conversion Lens DMW-LT55.

As a verdict, with Panasonic FZ70 you get a decent core specifications for a cheaper price. Canon SX60 HS is smaller but the FZ70 is light-weight. Canon Powershot SX60 HS provides more zoom but on the other hand Panasonic FZ70 provides almost similar optical zoom (60x) with a better aperture range. So if you are looking for high-end specs and a zoom camera you may prefer Canon SX60 HS, otherwise you can go with the FZ70 for a better price value.
